Upon arriving home about 3:30 pm, I parked my 2008 Hyundai Entourage, turned-off the engine and restarted the engine. The illuminated indicator ESC light did not inappropriately illuminate. I inspected the exterior lights only to learn all of the rear lights were still illuminated with the engine turned-off and in park. …”
